  • Global footwear leader is the new presenting partner of the FIS Nordic Combined World Cup 2024/25 

  • Skechers will also join as premium partner of premier Cross-Country events: the Tour de Ski and the Davos stage of the FIS World Cup 

The International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS) is proudly welcoming Skechers as a new presenting partner of the FIS Nordic Combined World Cup for the 2024/25 season. 

Labeled The Comfort Technology Company™, Skechers designs, develops, and markets a diverse range of lifestyle and performance footwear, as well as apparel and accessories, for men, women, and children. Over the course of the last few years, the company has grown exponentially, particularly in Europe, and has broadened its range of sports partnerships across football, basketball, golfing, and now snow sports. 

I have no doubt that the talent and endurance of our Nordic Combined athletes, who excel in two very demanding disciplines, will be a vivid representation of the values that underpin a company known for innovation and high performance.Christian Salomon, FIS Chief Commercial Director

The American-based global footwear leader has also signed as a premium partner of two of the most prestigious stops of the Cross-Country calendar: the Tour de Ski and the FIS Cross-Country World Cup stage in Davos, Switzerland.

Having ventured into football and basketball, we have realized that winter sports are another fantastic platform for us to showcase the high quality of our shoes. We could not be any happier to join forces with the largest winter sports federation and support the Nordic disciplines and the communities that revolve around them.Björn Quadt, Skechers Head of Marketing
